I was having “chest thumps” and have had IBS my whole life. I had to become my own advocate. But I want to point out it’s not easy going Gluten Free…not just because of giving up warm bread but because of all the products out there. If you go GF and switch to GF food you have to read the labels. The food is mostly made from corn and rice and has high carb amounts and high glycemic counts. They make great healthy alternatives….like black bean pasta or chickpea pasta that are lower carb and high protein with lots of dietary fiber. Going GF has changed my life for the better because my body needed that but I also have to be careful what I substitute and read labels.

And for me….I can have food that has touched gluten….I just can’t ingest food that has it in it. So I can take meat off my sons sandwich and be fine. With that being said there are lots of foods that don’t have gluten in them but are processed where gluten is. Figure out your body and then read labels. You’ll be surprised at how many good food are available to you! Including the indulgent snack food (every once in awhile)!

I was eating healthy, but still felt awful (skin issues, rashes, digestive problems, exhaustion, body aches, stomach pain, etc)…you name it, I had it. I was desperate – went to 8 different docs searching for answers – when I never go to the doctor. None of them could figure it out, so I decided to figure it out on my own. I changed my diet, removed ALL gluten and soy. It took my body almost a year to heal, but since then, I have never felt better!
Thanks for sharing your story. I think so many people deal with these same issues and don’t realize why.
